FCA! 35 Tour - An Evening With Peter Frampton[2 DVD]

My how time flys! Seems like yesterday I was watching a much younger Peter Frampton doing his live show at the "Day on the Green" concert held at the Oakland Coliseum back in 1976. About the only thing that has changed is the length of his hair. His guitar playing has only improved over the years. The first part of this concert is a complete run-through of his historic "Frampton Comes Alive" album that in essence captapulted Peter into instant super-stardom back in 1976. Many memorable tunes here all done with an energy and love that shows Peter still enjoys playing this stuff. His self-deprecating sense of humor(lack of hair, etc.) shows his personable side and keeps you entertained. The band is solid and the keyboardist really cranks it up a notch on "Do You Feel Like I Do". The second half of the show is, I assume, Peter's more recent works. To put it bluntly, Peter smokes like I've never seen him play before. This guy hasn't missed a beat in all these years and his chops are smokin hot. Lots of extended guitar solos and the band does a great job keepin up with Mr. Frampton. He even has his son Julian come out and sing a couple........VERY touching and he's actually quite the talent himself. It's obvious that Peter is a VERY proud papa. As far as the video and sound quality goes..... it's top notch, first rate. The audio is especially well mixed, clean and full sounding and nothing seems to overpower or seems missing in this high-def blu-ray mix. Highly recommended.

First of all, to see and hear Frampton doing FCA after all these years is an incredible treat; brings back so many memories...thing is, there are so many people - millions, I'm sure - who know nothing of him beyond that single incredible performance. He's in fantastic form, here, with a sterling band; and their performance literally could not be more evocative of the original. Great as it is, the real gem here, for me, is the additional concert content from The Beacon Theater in NYC. Every song is absolutely standout from beginning to end, beginning with Asleep at the Wheel and continuing right through to the encore, a gorgeous rendition of While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Peter's son Julian makes a vocal appearance on Road to the Sun, and the Humble Pie fave I Don't Need No Doctor, and acquits himself superbly. Personal favorites Double Nickels, Four Day Creep and Off The Hook (PERFECT!) are fantastic, and he also rips off a pretty special version of Black Hole Sun. Another treat is Vaudeville Nanna and the Banjolele, a tune he would never had played back in his heyday. I really can't say enough about how much I've enjoyed this DVD. It is stunning, truly stunning.

I have had the pleasure to have seen Peter Frampton 5 times dating back to the late 1970's. It is hard to imagine, but his guitar playing is getting better. This is a great showcase of his fantastic Frampton Comes Alive album. It is cool that he has his bass player from that album in the band. His band is tight and really gives the tunes an updated sound. The cool thing is that Peter is having a blast playing these songs. The second half of the show features other Peter Frampton songs and a few cool covers as well, most notably While My Guitar gently Weeps. I've never been a huge fan of the bonus interviews and things of that nature on DVD's, however this one has a must see. You have to see the piece on how Peter got his black Les Paul custom back after thinking it has been destroyed for over 30 years.

I have been a Frampton fan all my life and he was the first person i saw in concert,more than 35 years ago,just before the Frampton Comes Alive and have seen him many times since than.He puts on great shows and love to hear all his songs both old and new. I had just found out about this FCA 35 TOUR: EVENING WITH PETER FRAMPTON [BLUE RAY] and had to get it.With this you get around 2 hours 45 minutes of the complete FRAMPTON COMES ALIVE,then some of his new songs.I am very happy i got it because it is a great show,like he has been doing all these years,with great sound+picture and well worth it. I have both the Frampton Comes Alive II and the concert in Detroit DVD, but i must say this is the best one of them.Its great to have it in BLUE RAY and if you are a old fan of his,or anyone who is new with him,you cant go wrong with this one. PS: The last time i saw Frampton in concert was in 2009 and didn't think. With the help of this BLUE RAY show i found out about Bob Mayo (RIP) I didn't know he had past away and we all lost a great keyboard,guitar+ vocalist.We all miss YOU and will never forget YOU.

First off I would like to point out that Peter Frampton is still sounding every bit as good as he did in the 1970s on both concert DVDs. The second part is that not only does Mr. Frampton still sing as good but his guitar playing is awesome. I was supposed to see Frampton in concert in the summer of 1979 but due to circumstances didn't get to go to that concert. Finally got this DVD and so glad I did. Let me just say, both DVDs are excellent and the sound and video are top notch. You will not be disappointing with this concert. The first DVD is the complete set from Frampton comes alive album 1976, the second DVD is his newer material thru out the rest of his career up to 2012. Its a time capsule for those who grew up in the 1970s and lets us recapture those days all over again.

Concerto commemorativo del celebre Frampton Comes Alive! del 1976,il BD è stato registrato nel 2012 a New York e Milwaukee , con il bassista S. Sheldon unico componente della band originale. 26 brani molto ben suonati con qualche cover blues ed una intima e struggente rivisitazione di While my guitar gently weeps di J. Harrison , come bonus c'è una reunion al Gibson Les Paul guitar sempre del 2012. Qualità video/audio ottima. Consegna come sempre puntale.

Très bel opus, Peter Frampton remet ça avec son Frampton Comes Alive ! Le premier FCA sorti en 1976 revient en bluray avec son lot de chansons récentes pour notre plus grand plaisir. Le son disponible en DTS HD Master emplit la salle avec un réalisme étonnant. Guitares, basse, batterie donnent un florilège de virtuosité et de très haute maîtrise technique. Le concert capté au Beacon Theater in New York City est un must du guitariste-chanteur. Le spectateur se laisse vite séduire et entraîner par la célérité de Peter Frampton. L'excellente image, une bonne prise de vue mettent en évidence le talent de guitariste du chanteur. Petite émotion lorsque Julian Frampton fait son entrée pour interpréter deux chansons. Peter utilise aussi la Talkbox, tuyau buccal qui module le son de la voix, clin d'oeil aux années 70. Nul doute, le FCA 35 th anniversary est un best, un document pour nostalgiques et amoureux de la guitare. Apprêtez-vous à passer un bon moment devant votre écran, à partager entre amis.

What a Chap, what a performer, have seen him live also, but this is just as good. Brilliant ⭐️

Excelente concierto con todas las canciones importantes de Frampton acompañado de buenos músicos un concierto que vale mucho tener para tu colección.

Let’s just say Peter has still got it! He can sing as good as he ever did and his guitar playing is perfect for his music. While he may not be in the league with Jeff Beck or Joe Satriani I love his guitar tone. This is a great DVD that was thankfully directed by Pierre & François Lamoureux who have also done other work for Rush, Joe Satriani and Deep Purple. There is none of the camera shots every second or stupid slow motion effects. Instead they just focus on Peter and the band who seem a little tight at the first and then relax a bit once they get going. It was also nice seeing a clip on the bonus disc about he got his famous Phoenix guitar back after all these years. It’s amazing how Frampton Comes Alive stands up after 35 years, let’s see if any artists today are still around after that long. Oh yeah, did you notice the drummer looks an awful lot like Will Ferrell’s character Harry Caray from Saturday Night Live or one of the Rug Rats animated kids?
